I got 2 buckets out. 1 with sour corn and 1 with cheap dollar stor dog food. Every week I fill up the bucket with dog food and if they ever eat all the corn ill fill it up as well.

That red bag of dollar general dog food is hard to beat! I've started using some cheap stuff from tractor supply. Its called bad doggy. Works pretty good. I can't feed corn or sweet feed cause turkey season. Be hunting over bait.

How much is that dog food from tractor supply...cheapest I found was around $14 bucks...so that means I'f a man has 5 feeders and fills them twice a month he's spending 140 a month in just coon feed

You can save alot of money if you get ya one of them coon dogs to get out and hunt for them coon but that might put too much stress on those hot nosed dogs.
